[Ips-aurora-alert] Aurora Watch

A Coronal Mass Ejection is expected to impact the Earth within the
next 24 – 48 hours, possibly resulting in significant space weather
activity and visible auroras at higher latitudes (eg Tasmania) during
local nighttime hours. The projected CME arrival time is for late
Sunday (19-May). Alerts will follow should favourable space weather
activity eventuate.
